Storylines
Juventus: This team pretty much wrapped the league up by beating Napoli last weekend and needs only a few more wins to secure the title. That win last week makes this one far less important, allowing them to potentially rest some players.
Udinese: Overall this season, Udinese has really struggled, but consecutive victories has the squad in a decent spot. Rodrigo De Paul has continued to be a leader and has become an important member of Argentina's national team in the process. Except Juve to guard him closely.
Juventus vs. Udinese prediction
Juve rests some of its most important players ahead of next week's game against Atletico Madrid in the Champions League but still get the win as Paulo Dybala nets the winner.
Pick: Juve (-312)
